Queer-affirming therapy · Denver, Colorado
What we bring into the room.
Being gay is part of who I am and part of what informs the space I create as a therapist. At the same time, my practice is about accepting yourself no matter what identities that may include.
01
It matters that your therapist gets it
For many, knowing your therapist shares some lived experience matters — it can help you relax into the relationship. As a queer therapist, I have had the privilege to work with many queer folks, many of whom are open and closeted gay men. And what feels most important is knowing that we are all human with the same needs for belonging, love, and acceptance. That’s where all good therapy begins.
02
What we might work on together
- Self-acceptance across all the identities you hold
- Queerness, authenticity & belonging
- Family-of-origin wounds and coming-out experiences
- Shame, self-worth, and the inner critic
- Intimacy, attachment & romantic relationships
- Masculinity, vulnerability & emotional connection
- Spirituality, meaning & life direction
The questions we explore in therapy — how to belong, how to trust, how to love, how to feel at home in yourself — aren’t exclusively queer questions. They’re human ones.
